Staff in office was interacting with her and she allows all handling, even letting staff pick her up like a baby and purring with head pets & belly rubs. She is such an adorable girl!"<br/><br/><br/><br/>Per staff 11/4: "Kamate possesses an exceptionally friendly and outgoing temperament. She is a true social butterfly, often seeking out interaction and greeting everyone she encounters. It's common for people to stop the office she resides in and say hello to Kamate, as she welcomes the attention readily.<br/><br/>She has a penchant for cozy, enclosed spaces. She loves to hide in cardboard boxes, cat tunnels, and other hideaway holes<br/><br/>* Lap and Belly Enthusiast: Kamate is incredibly affectionate. She frequently seeks out human contact and enjoys laying on your lap.<br/><br/>* Dog-Like Affection: One of her most unique and endearing traits is her enjoyment of belly rubs. Unlike many cats, Kamate often solicits and is perfectly happy to receive belly rubs, much like a dog.<br/><br/>In short: Kamate is a highly social, interactive, and affectionate cat who brings joy and cuddles wherever she goes."<br/><br/><br/>ACCT Philly is located at 111 West Hunting Park Ave in Philadelphia.
